We've hit bottom

with the detractors. Here's what I posted in Vektor's thread:

So every member of Congress on the Democratic side, who witnessed the 2000 election and the 2004 election, every one who ran on the Democratic ticket, since no one raised the issue that the election would be stolen, are all Pollyannas in your opinion. You also indict every Democrat planning to run for office this year and in 2008.

Boxer voted no on certifying the elections, but ran for office and won reelection in 2004. Is she a Pollyanna too?

Conyers has done everything possible to raise the specter of a tainted election, but he did not do it prior to the election. Is he a Pollyanna too? Since the election, he has produced one of the most damning reports about the election problems, but concludes that the problems cited don't definitively prove the election was stolen. He, as a member of the Congressional committee that has the power to initiate impeachment proceedings, concedes that the evidence isn't there.

Conyers' report, the DNC's report and the GAO's report have been out there for some time now. Not one person in any official capacity, elected or aspiring to be elected, in this entire country has taken these reports to mean that the election was stolen. In a non official capacity, one could say the election was stolen, but what would that person then use to convince the courts, the media and the public?


(This encompasses everyone---the nine Democratic candidate, current members of Congress, elected official across the country and even candidates on the political horizon.)


The response: Yes.

2. Again, this is the opposition eating itself.
Attitudes like that are self-defeating and will result in no reasonable action being taken to stop fraud and abuse in the American voting system.
